The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Uchu Sentai Kyuranger (宇宙戦隊キュウレンジャー, Uchū Sentai Kyūrenjā; Space Squadron Kyuranger) is a Japanese tokusatsu drama and the 41st entry of Toei's long-running Super Sentai metaseries. It aired from February 12, 2017, to February 4, 2018, replacing Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger and was replaced by Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger. The program joining Kamen Rider Ex-Aid and later Kamen Rider Build in the Super Hero Time line-up on TV Asahi affiliate stations. Kyuranger is considered the fifth and final space-themed series whose primary motifs are constellations and Greco-Roman mythology. It is also the only Super Sentai series to introduce nine regular members in the beginning instead of five or fewer like previous installments. The team later gains three additional members, increasing the number to twelve and becoming the largest team of the franchise. Kyuranger began airing in South Korea as Power Rangers Galaxy Force. It also began airing in Indonesia in April 2019 as Kyuuranger. Footage from Kyuranger was later reused for the third season of Power Rangers Dino Fury, renamed Power Rangers Cosmic Fury. However, much like Gosei Sentai Dairanger, only the footage pertaining to the mecha is used, with Cosmic Fury using original costume designs for the Rangers. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
